Anybody using this on pc/laptop. If you are did you have to go through the android emulator route using bluestack or similar? Hope there is an easier path or at least one that doesn't cost any money.

For a friend whose work mobile does not permit such programmes.

I haven't even the foggiest idea what it is or how it works, save a lot of traders advertising in Spain use it in their adverts. They even go as far as saying don't Email as they don't use Email. They have to provide an Email address as part of the websites protocol!!

For the record I installed  Bluestacks on pc - it is free and runs Whatsapp fine as well as other phone type apps. Suspect it will struggle in parts of Reading due to pigeon shit contamination

Our current boss is from Yorkshire.

(This may not seem immediately funny to most here. But... ;D ;D ;D )

So, WhatsApp. This is a mobile yoghurt pot application yes? Why on earth would anyone run it on a lap top? Oh wait, I know, to get an internet connection right?

Yeah, mobile yoghurt pots don't have internet do they. Fair do's then. :)

You need to be tethered...and not to your usual preference of a sheep :y

As was said at outset the person who asked me effectively has no mobile on which to run Whatsapp....keep up!

Nope, I simply don't believe that. It's quite easy you know, this speckled Jim business.

And anyway, why has pscocoa become so chippy? He used to be such a polite technophobe. Even offered me a ride in his car. Which I declined of course.

Ah, is this another gay Dad that wants to chase me round the forum? I'm flattered of course, but no thanks.  :-* ;)

You only get $19billion for owning it not using it.  :P ;D ;D ;D ;D
